  • Open Space Plan April 28, 2002
    Abstract of the New Hartford Open Space Plan April 28, 2002 New Hartford Open Space Planning Committee Open space is land preserved in its natural state or for farming or forestry. The State has set a goal of preserving 21% of Connecticut land as open space by 2023. Of New Hartford’s 24,362 acres, only 3,335, or 13.7%, are permanently protected as open space. Large scale residential development is under way. In the past decade, 300 new homes have been build, and the town has lost approximately 1,937 acres of farmland alone to residential development. The population has doubled in forty years. Open space protects quality of life, the environment, agriculture, archaeological sites, and the tax base. Residential development costs the town $1.58 in services for every tax dollar generated, vs. $0.05 per dollar for open space. The town should seek multiple sources of funding, including bonding, state grants and private grants, to preserve high-priority lands as open space. A wide variety of protection mechanisms exist aside from actually purchasing land, and many of them involve keeping the land under private ownership and control. The town should take steps to prevent haphazard development and preserve high priority lands as open space in perpetuity. High priority lands are those that protect agriculture, the rural character of the town, water quality, wildlife, passive recreation, and archaeological sites, especially if they are large tracts of land in residential zones. Once the Open Space Plan is approved, a commission will be assigned the task of implementing the plan.

  • 03/24/2021 Broderick, Thomas-Support
    To: CT General Assembly Finance, Revenue, and Bonding Committee From: Thomas Broderick, Trumbull Re: SB 887 Date: March 20, 2021 Dear Finance, Revenue, and Bonding Committee, Over the past year of the covid-19 pandemic, Connecticut’s trails, open spaces, and parks have been my constant companion; indeed, it’s not too far to say that they kept me sane. When our local town parks shut down in March 2020, my wife and I immediately began to explore at all the state parks. We spent time together seeing the state and going to places we’d never been despite living here for years: the Tunxis Trail and Indian Council Caves, the Narragansett Trail and Lantern Hill, the Natchaug Trail and its river system, James L. Goodwin State Forest, Naugatuck State Forest—and so many more. Even in non-pandemic times, though, our open spaces make Connecticut great. Residents can go from the beaches of Hammonasset to the grand views at Chaugham overlook in the People’s State Forest. As a Trumbull resident, I live a half mile from the Pequonnock River Trail and see first-hand how it’s not just a greenway but a gathering place. On any given day there are seniors out for a stroll, children learning to ride their bikes, dog walkers of all ages and runners out for exercise. This same dynamic is repeated in our parks, greenways, and trails across the state. Our open spaces are central to building healthy, vibrant communities, and I want to ensure the General Assembly protects places like the Pequonnock River Trail for future generations, too.
